Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is a rare neoplastic disorder. It may extend into the right cardiac chambers, which are named after intracardiac leiomyomatosis (ICL). We describe a case of IVL extending into the right heart and pulmonary artery in a 46-year-old woman. The patient successfully underwent a one-stage operation under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with deep hypothermic circulatory arrest. The patient fully recovered without major complications and did not exhibit any recurrence at the 9-month follow-up. The unique feature of this case is its involvement with the pulmonary artery, which is uncommon but potentially lethal.
静脉内平滑肌瘤病(IVL)是一种罕见的肿瘤性疾病。它可能延伸至右心腔,这种情况被称为心内平滑肌瘤病(ICL)。我们描述了一例46岁女性的IVL延伸至右心和肺动脉的病例。该患者在体外循环(CPB)及深低温停循环下成功接受了一期手术。患者完全康复,无重大并发症,在9个月的随访中未出现任何复发。该病例的独特之处在于其累及肺动脉,这虽不常见但可能致命。
